Review
The writer and director of this film, Anushree Mehta, has given a message of women empowerment along with making people laugh in the spy comedy film. Also has given a message to people who underestimate housewives. However, the story of the film is not that strong. This movie could have been better. In the first half, the story of the film provides entertainment. The film portrays the mentality of a criminal named Common Man who cannot appreciate the advances of women. In the second half, the heroine of the film looks like a typical housewife but takes on the form of Durga. Radhika Apte has done a great acting as always. She acts as a housewife and an agent. Rajesh Sharma is rocking the comic avatar of the Secret Service Chief. Sumit Vyas has played the role of the villain perfectly.
The film also gives a message
This film of around two and a half hours will make you laugh and entertain while giving a message to not underestimate women. However, a few things in the film seem to go awry.
